Reader's note

A gorgeous green vintage book by Oscar Wilde. This First Edition is comprised of two plays published as one volume. An Ideal Husband is a four-act play that revolves around blackmail and political corruption, and touches on the themes of public and private honour. A Woman of No Importance is a play that reveals troubling attitudes towards the role and expectations of women in the Victorian Era. The main plot of the play revolves around a woman, Mrs. Arbuthnot, who is an unwed mother with one grown son. People believe she is a widow. 

“Every woman is a rebel, and usually in wild revolt against herself.” 

Add this to your collection today, Wilde's writings are always a classy and welcome addition to any bookshelf. Just one of the many classic, collectible, vintage books available on our online used bookstore.
